First I want to say thankyou for all the nice commments from everyone. I really appreciate it.
some of you asked if there were specific things I needed to work on and the answer is yes. I'll be the first to admit that I have been lax in some of my duties at my job , but some of their concerns are completely rediculus (sp).
We have yet to have the next supervisory meeting to discuss my rebuttle to there accustaions. But such is the way of daycare. We have had several staff out and we have to have ratios covered before we can have a long meeting. This part is driving me nuts.
I will NOT let them terminate me. It is a matter of principle on my part. I do not believe I deserved this drastic of action. I agree that some consiquence is deserved but not a 30 probation and then termination.
I told them that if I could resign immediatly I would, but I cannot afford to do so. It would not be in the best interest of my children or myself. I did tell them that I would be seeking employment elsewhere affective immediately. They are supportive of this and said they will give me time for interviews as staffing permits.
Soooooooooooo I have been making phone calls and putting in applications like crazy. But I did get a call back for and interview at a Dr's office, clerical assistant. Hopefully something suitable will show up soon. I'll let you know how the inteview goes.
I'm done rambling now. May everyone have a bless day. and thanks again for your support.

You said you are determined not to let them terminate you, yet you told them if you could afford to, you would quit the job. And that you are looking for another job.
Don't quit without finding another job since you can't then collect unemployment.
I don't know the specifics of why they gave you a negative performance review, but there have been many people, no doubt, who got a negative performance review, worked harder to improve in that area and went on to keep the job. You said you didn't like the job anyway, so i suppose this one's not worth fighting for, except that you need a paycheck until you can find something better, right?

I do not plan on leaving without another job lined up. I was asked by management to do some soul searching to decide whether this was where I wanted to be. I did and decided it is time to move on. There is so much more to this whole story, but I cannot explain it without writing a novel.
If my performance is sastifactory for the 30 days my job continues, even though they are aware that I am looking elsewhere.
Thanks for your concern and input, I appreciate it.
